DESCRIPTION:
A vulnerability has been reported in the Comment Edited module for
Drupal, which can be exploited by malicious users to conduct script
insertion attacks.

Certain unspecified input is not properly sanitised before being
displayed to the user. This can be exploited to execute arbitrary
HTML and script code, which will be executed in a user's browser
session in context of an affected site when the malicious data is
being viewed.

Successful exploitation requires "administer comments" permissions.

The vulnerability is reported in versions prior to 6.x-1.4.

SOLUTION:
Update to version 6.x-1.4.
